1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
sensing an interference level of at least one frequency;
selecting, based on the interference level, a frequency sub-channel for a first stage sidelink control information (SCI-1);
communicating the SCI-1 in the selected frequency sub-channel; and
communicating, using a selected number of consecutive orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, a second stage sidelink control information (SCI-2) in the selected frequency sub-channel, wherein the consecutive OFDM symbols overlap in time with the communicating the SCI-1, and wherein the selected number of consecutive OFDM symbols is based on the selected frequency sub-channel.
